Compuserve WinCIM
1. In CSI 3.0 under Access|Preferences in the Connection tab. You need to
set the "Winsock Type" to "Default WINSOCK", and "Dial Type" to "Direct".
2. In your CSI.INI file you will find two entries of
HostIPName=gateway.compuserve.com
HostIPAddress=
change them to your server's name and IP...
HostIPName=gateway
HostIPAddress=192.168.0.1
The last thing you need to do is setup your wingate machine to handle the
proxy on port 4144 the same way as one would for WinCIM. You need to make a
mapped link with the remote host is gateway.compuserve.com. I'll even beat
your local DNS server to it and resolve the IP
149.174.216.93

WinCIM works on port 4144. You need to set up a mapped link on port 4144 which
maps through to the remote host compuserve.com, also on port 4144. You then
need to configure WinCIM to use "wingate" as its server. Here are the steps:
1. In GateKeeper, Add a TCP Mapping Proxy
Enter the following settings:
Enable connections to proxy on port 4144
Enable default remote host compuserve.com port 4144
click done.
2. On the client machine(s), edit the hosts file (the one the entry for
wingate is in). Add the following line:
192.168.0.1 compuserve.com
The 192.168.0.1 is given as an example, if you are using a different address,
replace this with the address of the machine running WinGate.
What this step does, (because the HOSTS file overrides all name lookups) is
when WinCIM tries to connect to compuserve.com, it first does a lookup on the
name, the IP number returned will be the one corresponding to the WinGate machine,
so WinCIM will connect to WinGate on port 4144, which will be mapping through
to compuserve.com
